Apm.iM?.] B. HAY ATA.— SOME CONIFERS FROM TONKIN & YUNNAN. 119 



Taxus Linn. 



Taxus sp. nov. 



Hab. in montibus inter Yunnan et Tonkin, leg. Sh. Kawai, 

 Jan. 1917. 



Somewhat near to Taxus cuspidata var. chinensis, but 

 widely different in general features. Neither fruit nor flower. 



Podocarpus L' Her. 



Podocarpus neriifolia D. Don. 



Hab. in montibus inter Yunnan et Tonkin, leg. Sh. Kawai, 

 Jan. 1917. 



In conclusion, I avail myself of this opportunity to tender 

 my hearty thanks to Prof. Kawai who has generously put all 

 his valuable collections at my disposal. I also desire to express 

 my obligations to Prof. Matsumura for the pronunciation of 

 some Chinese characters and to Mr. S. Matsuda for his trouble 

 in explaining certain parts of the poem at my request. 



April, 1917, Taihoku and Tokyo.
